The clean up after dinner was quiet, the atmosphere crackling with anticipation and nervousness. Naruto and Sasuke worked the dishes and pots in quiet unity. Naruto washed and Sasuke rinsed and dried and set them aside to put away later. When they were done, they stood, waiting for the other to move but Naruto seemed rooted to the spot. Sasuke's eagerness got the better of him though and he found himself placing a gentle hand on Naruto's lower back. "Let's go to the bedroom." He suggested, Naruto nodded, dried his hands with Sasuke's discarded towel before he turned away, swinging his tail into his hands he nervously twisted it.

The walk to the bedroom seemed to take forever, but couldn't have been more than a minute. Sasuke felt hyperaware, as if he had transformed and was in his beast form. He could hear everything, from Naruto's rapidly pounding heartbeat to the lightly falling snow. His skin felt extra sensitive, every step he took brushed the coarse fabric of his underwear against his dick, or maybe because he was so excited why the fabric felt coarse. Either way, he had been waiting for this to happen for so long that he could hardly contain himself.

Naruto was more subdued though, quiet and worrying the fur off his tail with how much he was wringing it and Sasuke feared Naruto would ask to wait. This was a big step for them. After they consummated their bond they would be mates for life, till death and beyond. That was a big step for any person, sharing half of themselves with someone for the rest of their days, but as scary as the thought was Sasuke was excited. He'd give anything to spend a moment with Naruto, and now, he had him as his own.

He helped Naruto out of his clothes, unclasping each button slowly until the dress fell freely from his shoulders and into a pool at his feet, Sasuke was delighted to see that Naruto was as hard and excited as he was. He inhaled deeply, memorizing the scent of Naruto's arousal and tucking it into the back of his mind. Naruto did the same to him, slowly removing his shirt first then undoing his belt and letting it fall to the floor.

Fingertips met skin shyly and kneaded the flesh as they stepped closer together, wrapping each other up in their arms and joining for a deep slow kiss. Tongue against tongue, teeth on lips and mouth against mouth. Unlike all the other times there was a need right now they had all the time in the world and Sasuke was determined to milk Naruto for every drop he could give. He scooped the blonde up and gently laid him on the bed, keeping as much as them joined as they could while they maneuvered the furs and the sheets out of their way.

Sasuke pulled away, hovering over his lovers he stroked his jaw and stared into the seemingly endless depths of his eyes, he wanted to hear him say it. "Are you ready?" he asked barely above a whisper.

Naruto giggled, "I always thought about how my first time would be, probably with a beta in the back of a shed or something. When I fantasized about it, it was always in the forest for some reason, but I'm glad it's not and I'm glad it's with you and not some random rut." Sasuke kissed him hard, he did want to fuck Naruto everywhere but he'd tell Naruto about his own fantasies later.

Shyly Naruto spread his legs and Sasuke settled between them hooking a hand behind Naruto's knees he dragged the blonde's ass close to his dick. Naruto took a deep breath then went limp under him, his arms resting by his side and his neck bared as he looked off to the side: the perfect picture of submission. Sasuke licked a nipple, kissed it then sucked it into his mouth, his grip tight on Naruto's hips as he pulled him closer. Naruto moaned his name, one hand sliding through the alpha's hair, Sasuke bit down, relishing Naruto cry and the sting when Naruto pulled on his hair.

He prodded Naruto's wet hole with a finger, gently at first, testing the puckered ring and feeling how soft and plush it was, Naruto whimpered below him, his fingers flexing in Sasuke's hair but neither pulling it nor letting, his other hand doing the same to the sheet. Sasuke plunged his finger in, maybe a bit too fast, but Naruto took it all in. A sharp intake but otherwise he remained the perfect picture of submission, Sasuke moved to the other nipple, whispering how perfect Naruto was.

Slowly he pumped the finger, in then out, in the out. Naruto moaned softly, writhing beneath him. His ears were ringing with all the new sounds Naruto was making. He vowed to make him moan more often. "I'm going to add another one baby, you'll hardly feel it." He whispered against Naruto's chest, sucking bruises around the omega's swollen pink nipples. Naruto didn't respond but Sasuke hadn't expected him to. As he kissed his way up Naruto's chest he added finger, pumping them just as slow but steadily increasing his pace. He widened his fingers as he pulled them out before pressing them together and pushing in. Naruto's legs tightened around his waist and as he kissed up to Naruto's cheek he could see him worrying his bottom lip in his mouth.

"I'm gonna put it in now Naruto… are you ready?" Sasuke sucked on Naruto's neck as Naruto wrapped his arms around him and hiked his legs up even higher. Slowly he pulled his fingers free then gripped the base of his cock and pressed it to Naruto's hole. He slid in smoothly but pulled back slightly before he rolled his hips forward again. Naruto arched off of the bed his breathe quickening with each shallow thrust Sasuke took.

"Sasuke…" Naruto moaned his name, his fingers digging into Sasuke's back, "It hurts…" he moaned.

"I'm almost all the way in," Sasuke groaned as he sucked Naruto's lip into his mouth and gave him a sloppy kiss. He groaned louder as he bottomed out Naruto still moaning his name.

"Oh my gosh…" Naruto groaned.

"It'll feel better soon, just relax, and breathe, you'll like it." It was taking all of Sasuke's effort to remain still while Naruto adjusted to his length but Naruto kept wriggling and flexing his asshole around Sasuke's cock and all the sensations were becoming just about too much. If he came before he could properly fuck Naruto he'd never live down the mortification.

"Sasuke, I'm okay. You can move now," those words were about music to Sasuke's ear. He rolled his hips, slowly at first, letting Naruto grip him harder as he got a proper foothold on the bed and handhold on his new bride.

Naruto was gasping and moaning his name just as he was whispering his praises to how tight, warm and wet he was. Naruto dug his heels into his thigh, his back arching deeper and higher as he tried to ground himself to something, his fingers digging into the sheets and Sasuke's flesh, his claws ripping into both, his moans escalated into cries and as Sasuke wrapped his fist around his cock he was cumming, Sasuke's name slipping out as a sharp cry.

Naruto's cry sent him close to the edge but before he could get his own release he pulled out, Naruto protested weakly, his own orgasm sinking him in a lull, Sasuke ignored him as he crossed one of Naruto's legs over the other and pressed into him from behind. Naruto willingly let Sasuke manipulate his body, groaning as Sasuke latched onto his neck and went limp as Sasuke's knot began to rapidly swell inside him.

They shuffled around on the bed until Naruto's back was flush against his chest and he was comfortable on his side. They laid there, basking in the afterglow of their first mating. Naruto wriggled his ass as he felt the first few spurts of Sasuke's cum filled him.

"How do you feel? Are you sore?" Naruto hummed, flexed his asshole then shrugged.

"I just feel tingly," he murmured, "and sleepy." He pulled Sasuke's arm up to his chest and took a deep breath."

"You should sleep. My knot should go down in a few minutes and then we need to clean up." Naruto didn't respond and Sasuke didn't think he would but he felt proud that he apparently did well enough that Naruto was immediately going to sleep. It took a lot of effort to stop his tail from wagging at the thought but he couldn't help the pleased little smirk that pulled at his mouth.

He pulled a thin sheet over them before he buried his face in the back of Naruto's neck to take a short nap while he waited for his knot to deflate.

Naruto began to stir just as Sasuke had finished cleaning him and was trying to quietly climb back into bed. "Sorry," he whispered, it was only a few hours ago that his knot had deflated and he'd woken up, tried to be gentle but obviously that hadn't worked. "I didn't mean to wake you."

Naruto hummed and smiled sleepily at him, "That's okay. I heard you leave, wanted to wait for you to come back," Sasuke smiled back, his heart doing flips in his chest. Sasuke ran his hand down Naruto's side and placed a gentle kiss on his shoulder as his dick thickened, he was glad he hadn't bothered to get dressed.

"How're you feeling?" he murmured in between kisses, "would you like to go again?" Sasuke grinned at him as Naruto nodded eagerly, twisting around to face his lover. Sasuke kissed his nose, then his cheek, then sealed their lips in a slow kiss. "Let's try a different way this time." He suggested, rubbing small circles on the blonde's hips.

"What do you mean?" Naruto draped an arm over him, slid his fingertips up Sasuke's spine to the base of his skull and played with the hair there.

"On your hands and knees," Sasuke's eyes darkened with lust, "It might even feel better for you," he massaged Naruto's thigh eliciting a slight moan from the omega.

"Well if you think so," he agreed, shifting and shuffling away he pushed the furs off his body and lowered his chest to the bed, his knees bent and ass in the air. He flushed horribly, he felt completely exposed. Sasuke though, was enjoying the view. If he wasn't so turned on right now he'd stop and lick Naruto's hole clean but as it was, he wanted to sink balls deep in his new mate.

"Spread your legs a little more," Sasuke instructed, sweeping the blonde's tail to the side Naruto's ears pressed flat against his head as he obeyed his alpha and spread his legs even wider. Sasuke draped himself over Naruto's back and lined his cock up with Naruto's asshole. Naruto whimpered as Sasuke pressed in, inch by burning inch until he was fully seated deep inside.

Their harsh panting rose and filled the air, Naruto wiggled beneath him, spreading his legs wider and bracing himself against the headboard. "We'll go slowly…" Sasuke peppered his shoulders and back with kisses and licks, one arm around Naruto's belly and the other pressed into the bed. Naruto nodded and slowly he pulled back, Naruto rocked forward at the same time and at the fear of slipping completely out of him Sasuke rammed back in. Naruto shrieked and Sasuke saw spots dance in front of his eyes.

"Oh shit Sasuke!" He wanted to apologize, he was going to, but his hips had a mind of their own in that moment and then he was pulling back and ramming back in. Slow but hard at first, he growled as his fingers slid against Naruto's sweaty body. Naruto kept screaming, moaning his name. Sasuke picked up his pace, fucking harder and harder into his mate, both hands gripping Naruto's hips as he pounded into him. Naruto was hanging on as tightly as he could to the headboard.

The sound of skin slapping against was loud, intermingling with the sounds of Sasuke's snarls as he thrust as hard and as deep into his mate as he could while Naruto cried out to the point where his voice was starting to break.

The bed rocked and slammed against the wall, the springs creaking and the board groaning under the pressure, Sasuke was relentless though, he could feel his climax fast approaching and before he could finish his mate off first his knot was swelling as he came and he was howling into the night. Naruto arched under him, the pressure of the knot enough to send him over the edge to join his mate in bliss.

He groaned as his dick gave another burst of cum as he collapsed on top of Naruto. Naruto 'oofed' and collapsed too, unable to hold Sasuke's weight up too spent to do much more than lay down. Sasuke pulled him close feeling awfully possessive even though he couldn't smell or hear another person but them and their intermingled scents.

He buried his face into the back of Naruto neck again, loving the new scent Naruto had that consisted of a mix of him and Naruto's own original scent. "Naruto…" he groaned. He felt exhausted, he couldn't remember ever doing two knots in one night. Hell he couldn't remember knotting anything but his fist before Naruto. Naruto moaned, the only indication that he was still awake. "Are you okay? Was that too rough?" Naruto grunted and Sasuke couldn't tell if he was in pain or not so he decided to sniff him. Naruto smelled amazing, both physically and emotionally, he didn't smell like he was in pain, in fact he smelt like complete happiness and if he could, Sasuke would puff his chest out at how pleased he was with himself, that was the second time tonight, Sasuke had a lot of posturing to do tomorrow, "Naru…?"

"Shh…" Naruto shushed him as he gathered up some of the furs to cuddle with as he closed his eyes and went silent. Sasuke smirked, Naruto was just as tuckered out as he was which was always the highest compliment a mate could give his alpha. Settling in, he closed his eyes and drifted off as well.

He was woken up by banging in the kitchen the next morning as Naruto noisily made breakfast. It was just past the risen sun and Naruto was already up and being a home maker. Naruto was the most perfect omega Sasuke could ever ask for. He didn't even remember to clean Naruto up after their second rut but he was already up and about. Sasuke would have liked to wake up next to Naruto, to see his face when he first opened his eyes. Would have liked to bask in the natural glow that was Naruto but he had the whole day, and every day after that.

Shuffling around the bed and to his drawers he found and pulled on a pair of clean underwear and slipped into it, heading out he spotted Naruto just as he dropped their plates on the table and dropped down hard into a chair. He looked up at Sasuke as he stepped closer and glared hard at him. Sasuke sighed, it didn't take a genius to guess what Naruto was furious about. "Morning," Sasuke greeted but the pleasant greeting only seemed to infuriate the blonde even more.

"Oh? Is that what you call it?" he sneered at Sasuke, "When an omega wakes up the next morning thinking they're officially a mated man when look!" He yanked his collar down to show the bite mark on his neck that was dark and healing. "I can feel my skin tingling, it's healing Sasuke." He said sternly, "Where is my claiming bite Sasuke?" he glared as the Alpha seemingly ignored him to sit and eat his meal.

"I didn't give you one," he replied after a few bites. Naruto was livid, he sucked in a breath, his claws unsheathing and piercing his skin as he growled, his eyes glowing blue with anger and sadness. "I didn't give you one yet." Sasuke quickly corrected. It was only their second day together as a mated pair and he didn't want it to be remembered as the day he made Naruto cry.

"Why not?" Naruto's voice sounded thick with emotion and hurt, he stared straight ahead at his alpha, demanding an explanation.

"I didn't want to trigger your heat." Naruto was quiet as he waited for an elaboration, "I know your cycle, before when I hadn't worked up the courage to talk to you when I'd pass by your house I'd smell it. I just sometimes ended up there when it was that time. So I know that your heats are always timely. Four days in the middle of the month."

"What's your point Sasuke?"

"My point, Naruto, is that if we really want to make sure we don't have any tiny feet in spring we have to be prepared for anything. They say heats are more fertile if you have a partner to spend them with and now you do, so if that's true then we need to be prepared."

Naruto clenched his jaw, "How is not claiming me preventing that. Are you going to let me go through my heat alone?" It was unheard of for an alpha to leave an omega, especially their omega alone during a heat. The lust and heat would drive an omega through the roof with wanting and their alpha would heed to their howls for relief and they'd end up fucking anyhow. Only way to ensure that they didn't mate during a heat week would be if Sasuke left him to suffer through it alone, which would just be cruel.

"I will claim you when I get back from town. I promise." Naruto scoffed.

"I still don't understand what you're trying to say Sasuke!"

"I'm saying that after I give you the mark your heat cycle will change, it'll be unpredictable, and we need to prepare for that." Sasuke took a deep breath, set his plate aside no longer having an appetite for breakfast, "I'm going to buy Mugwort from the herbalist."

Comprehension dawned on Naruto and he sighed heavily, his anger dissipating as the pieces clicked together in his mind. "Right, Mugwort, because we shouldn't have kids," Mugwort was a contraceptive scarcely used in the village since reproduction was heavily encouraged, however, some women were just too sick or they couldn't afford to take care of a liter but at the same time loved a good rut here and there so they drank the Mugwort to stop any unplanned pregnancy.

Naruto had never drunk the concoction in his life, he'd always dreamed of a broad chested alpha with a thick knot that wanted a fleet of puppies to call his own. Instead he chose a surly quiet alpha who had a dark past and who didn't want children of his own blood. Naruto had no problem with adopting, every child deserved love and a loving home to go with it, but he'd always thought pregnancy would suit him, rubbing a round belly in a rocking chair staring off his porch as the sun set off to the side and he watched his other children play.

Well, he had fantasied about lots of things when he was just a child but he was an adult now and things just didn't turn out the way he wanted. Sighing again when Sasuke didn't reply he quietly finished his breakfast as Sasuke silently stared at him, the air between them tense and taunt and when Naruto was finished he gathered up the dishes and went to wash them, still silent. He heard Sasuke approach him from behind but didn't make a move to turn to him.

Sasuke laid a hand on his waist and kiss his neck, "Just until your heats are predictable again," he murmured against the skin before he turned to leave. Sasuke pulled on some warmer clothes, thick boots and a thicker jacket, just as he was pulling the door open to leave Naruto yanked on his elbow.

"Sasuke…"

"Naruto we have to. This isn't a debate. It's not a discussion."

"So… if your tea doesn't work and I get pregnant then what?" Naruto accused. Sasuke turned to him a scowl on his face.

"So you're saying you won't drink it?"

"I'm saying that I will drink and eat whatever the hell you want me to but what if it doesn't work."

Sasuke turned away, "It will work."

Naruto held firm to his elbow though, pulling him back so he had to look at him. "But what if it doesn't? Are you going to force me to get rid of our first litter?"

Sasuke turned around fully, shocked that Naruto would even assume that, "No! I would never, our children… why would you think that? Of course if you get- I'm just trying to protect us all-" he stammered, his words over lapping as he tried to formulate a complete sentence. Naruto held his face in his palms and force him to look at him.

"I will drink your tea," Naruto said slowly, "I will drink it every day for the rest of my life to protect us too, but, if it doesn't work, you can't go crazy with worry. You need to be strong and grounded so you can protect us. So you can help me to keep us all safe." If Sasuke wasn't sure before he knew now, he was in love with Naruto Uzumaki and he'd be damned if he didn't do everything in his power to protect him from anything. Bending down he wrapped the blonde up in a fevered kiss, wrapping his arms around his waist he pulled him tight and close, just trying to express how he felt where words were failing him. Naruto moaned his name and shifted in his arms tugging and trying to move Sasuke to the bedroom. "Sasuke…" he moaned when the alpha pushed him up against the counter instead of moving along the hall like Naruto was trying to get him to do. "Bedroom Sasuke, let's go to the bedroom, we can-" he gasped when Sasuke bent down and hiked his skirt up then pulled a leg up with him. "Sasuke?"

"You're not wearing underwear," Sasuke grunted as he struggled to free himself from his thick pants. Naruto flushed and blushed but didn't say anything just watched as Sasuke finally freed himself from his pants and pressed into his mate slow and steady enjoying the soft tightness as Naruto held him. Naruto gasped, his palms pressed against the counter to brace himself. He arched his back as Sasuke started up, no need to wait for Naruto to adjust he was already loose from their ruts last night. Naruto moaned his back arching and knuckles white as he tried not to bruise his hips from Sasuke's thrust and to hold himself upright so Sasuke could reach his peak.

"I'll protect us Naruto," Sasuke groaned, one hand behind the blonde's neck, dragging his face close and sloppily kissing him. Sasuke's thrusts sped up even more and Naruto knew he was gonna be sore, it was so rough and so good. Naruto loved the burn, loved when Sasuke plunged into him over and over, his voice was suffering though as he screamed Sasuke's name. His muscles pulled taunt, contracting all at once as his orgasm crashed over him, he didn't even realize that he was peaking. His sudden rush dragged Sasuke with him and the alpha was clamping down on his neck, still not breaking the skin, then came inside him in a rush of heat before they both stilled trying to catch their breaths as they slowly pulled apart.

Gently Sasuke eased out of him and lowered him to the ground, once Naruto was steadily on his feet he tucked himself back in, "Wait there, I'll fetch a bucket," Naruto rubbed his sore hips, after all the rutting they did he wanted an actual bath and not a wipe down.

"No that's alright I can just-," He took a step forward and felt the beginnings of Sasuke's cum ooze from his asshole, his face erupted in color, "Oh wow… oh… Sasuke it's…" Sasuke chuckled as Naruto quickly, albeit awkwardly, waddled to him and then into the bathroom. Sasuke set the tub to fill while he gathered some coal from the fire place and set them under the tub. Naruto stood awkwardly out of the way while he clenched his ass cheeks to stop the leaking as he listened to Sasuke explain that the coals would warm the water and keep it warm until he was finished with his bath.

When the tub was ready and warm Naruto eagerly sank in, it had been well over a while since he took an actual bath and could soak in one. Setting a towel behind his head he laid back and closed his eyes. Sasuke gave him a gentle kiss on the cheek before he left quietly.
